What hardware do you use?

I recently treated myself to a maxed-out 13" MacBook Air with English International keyboard layout and a matching Thunderbolt Display. A great machine and quite powerful to boot, even giving me decent framerates in 3D games.

I own a monome sixty four and a one twenty eight, as well as an arc 4, beautifully minimalistic controllers, that have gathered an unfortunate amount of dust over the last couple of months.

And what software?

I'm not emotionally attached to any particular brand or operating system. Still, I run OS X Lion almost exclusively, the only exception being the occasional game on Windows 7.

I use a very clever tool called F.lux to automatically adjust my monitor's white-point based on the time of day. It takes a great amount of stress off your eyes and I urge everyone to try it out for a couple of days. It's cross platform, too.

I've ditched OS X's own Terminal.app for iTerm 2, which sports proper fullscreen, split windows, auto-completion and much more.
However, its killer feature is the Hotkey window, which allows me to open a fast, fullscreen console no matter what I am currently doing. Using the awkwardly named PCKeyboardHack, I mapped my Caps Lock key to F13, which I then made the trigger for the Hotkey window – finally putting that key to a good use.

Inside of iTerm 2, I run zsh using the default theme + some plugins from oh my zsh.

Most of my iOS and Mac development happens inside of Xcode 4. It crashes probably a few times a day but on a fast machine, I can live with that.

My text editor of choice is currently Sublime Text 2. I like it because it is fast, cross-platform, good looking and has a nice distraction free mode in which I am currently writing this interview. Someday, I'll sit down and learn all its fancy features.

If I write something, I will probably check it into git at some point and push it to Github.

What would be your dream setup?

I'm very happy with what I currently have. My dream set up would probably be two large displays, powered by a thin and light laptop without fans that still has good graphics performance. I'm almost there.
